With a flash of red light, the scene of coaxing the child finally came to an end.
"Heh heh, how about that? The hyperactive ape followed my instructions and activated its skill just now. Now do you believe I'm a Gym Leader?"
"Pikachu, let's go. It seems the Gym Leader isn't here for the time being."
"Wait, wait a minute! Let's have a match, just one!"
"Xiaosheng, what are you guys doing making such a racket on the battlefield in the middle of the day?"
As Ash ignored Max clinging to his leg and walked straight toward the door, a familiar, pleasant voice suddenly came from outside the room window.
"elder sister!"
"Xiaoyao?"
"Hey, Ash, you're here."
The little head that suddenly peeked out of the window was none other than Haruka, who had recently parted ways with Ash.
Following closely behind her, a man and a woman quickly approached the window.
"Oh dear, do we have any guests at the dojo?"
"Welcome to my Petalburg Gym."
"Dad, Mom!"
"Mom and Dad?"
"Hehe, actually I'm the son of a gym leader."
Seeing that his scheme had finally been exposed, even the arrogant brat Xiao Sheng finally showed an embarrassed expression.
At this moment, Ash turned his gaze to May outside the window.
"So, Xiaosheng called you 'sister' just now, which means Xiaoyao, you..."
"Hehe, actually I'm also a child of the Petalburg Gym. Sorry for keeping it a secret from you before."
"what!"
What a coincidence!
————One more time————
And so, Ash followed May and the others to the reception room of Petalburg Gym to receive their hospitality.
"Let me formally introduce myself. These are my mom and dad."
The couple sitting next to him immediately greeted Xiaozhi warmly.
"Hello, I am Senri, the trainer of Petalburg Gym."
"I am Haruka and Kakeru's mother, and my name is Mitsuko."
"And that guy with glasses is my younger brother, Xiaosheng."
"What 'that guy'? Sister, please introduce me properly!"
"Little brother, it's a shame that you were so confident when you said you were a gym leader."
"What does it matter? I just really want to fight against the tournament champion!"
"Besides, I said I was a gym leader, but I didn't say it was now. It won't make a difference whether I become one in the future or not."
Xiao Sheng felt no shame at all; on the contrary, he was self-righteous.
When little brats get willful, it's really impossible to control them, but the siblings' parents seem much more composed.
Mitsuko gently handed the brewed tea to Satoshi, saying, "Thank you so much, Satoshi, for bringing Haruka all the way here."
"No, no, I didn't come here specifically to deliver it. After all, I didn't know beforehand. We were just traveling companions who happened to be passing by."
Ash wanted to be polite and make a good impression on May's parents, whom he was meeting for the first time, but Max interrupted again.
"Mom and Dad, let me tell you, this person is the champion of this year's Silver Tournament, the perverted scumbag Zhi!"
"Stop using that nickname! It's blatant slander!"
Xiao Zhi knew in his heart that this must be a rumor spread by those jealous guys!
You know, deep down he's actually very pure-hearted! (Seriously)
It's just that occasionally my masculinity surges so much that I can't control myself a little bit... The more I talk about it, the more something feels off.
However, Xiaozhi guarantees that every relationship was mutual, and many of them were not even initiated by him. Can he still be called a scumbag?
Chisato and Mitsuko clearly didn't take Kakeru's mischief to heart, and instead turned to look at Haruka.
"Speaking of which, Xiaoyao, where's your bicycle?"
When her mother asked where the gift she had given her before her trip was, Xiaoyao immediately put down her teacup and stammered.
"Uh, well... it got electrocuted by Pikachu."
"Pika~" Pikachu's two ears drooped down shyly at this moment.
However, Qianli patted Pikachu's little head.
"Haha, that's alright. It's normal for unexpected things to happen during a trip."
Mitsuko nodded in agreement, "And walking more is good for your health!"
"My goodness, what understanding parents!" Xiao Zhi was deeply moved. It seemed that he wouldn't have to pay for the bicycle.
Save money, fight thieves!
However, it seems that among all the girls Ash knows around his age, besides Sabrina, May is the first one with both parents alive...
The Pokémon world is terrifying.
Chapter 350 Battle Across a Thousand Miles
Seeing that the time was just right, Ash was invited by the Senri couple to stay for lunch, which he naturally accepted gladly.
At the dinner table, Ash's appetite surprised May's other family members, but May was used to it since she had seen it before.
"Wow, Ash, have you been starving for days? You ate a whole bowl of that!"
Faced with Xiaosheng's surprise, Xiaozhi said that he had already restrained himself.
"What does it matter? It's good for boys to eat more. Xiaozhi eating well means I'm a good cook."
"Please eat as much as you like, there's plenty more food." Mitsuko quickly interrupted Koshinaka's continued rudeness.
At this moment, Senri also turned his gaze to Ash.
"Say, Ash, did you come to our gym to challenge it?"
"No, Uncle Qianli." Xiaozhi ate another large bowl of rice and then looked up.
"I've only been in the Hoenn region for a short time and haven't challenged any other gyms yet."
"This is just a stopover; the first gym challenge I'll be facing is actually the Kanaz Gym in Kanaz City."
"But I heard on the way here that a very powerful gym leader has recently arrived, so I wanted to come and see for myself."
"Of course! My dad is the strongest trainer!"
"Xiao Sheng, there are always people more capable than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding. Maintaining humility is an excellent virtue."
This time it was Qianli's turn to interrupt Xiaosheng. The bespectacled kid immediately looked aggrieved, and Xiaoyao, as his older sister, immediately teased him from the side.
"However, I am still confident when it comes to Pokémon."
"Xiaoyao has never been very reliable, and she must have caused you a lot of trouble along the way."
"How can he be unreliable!" Xiaoyao protested coquettishly, but Qianli ignored her completely.
"Then let's have a practice match as a way of thanking you for taking care of Haruka."
As a powerful Pokémon Trainer, Senri naturally pays close attention to Ash, a rising star who has suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Not only was Ash curious about him, but he was also very interested in Ash, and immediately made this suggestion.
Ash was overjoyed: "Really? Uncle Senri!"
"Since you only have one Pokémon with you, we'll use the one-on-one battle rule, but this isn't a formal gym battle."
"Of course!"
[Ding! Congratulations on triggering a new side quest "Battle against the Normal-type Elite Four": Please win the battle against Senri.]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +5000; Stamina +2; Speed +2; Common Gem +1]
————Selfless Collision————
As soon as lunch was over, everyone excitedly headed to the dojo's battle arena.
"Ah~, how did things turn out like this? I wasn't even going to stay all day anyway, and I was planning to go shopping after dinner..."
"What does it matter, May? Watching Pokémon battles will benefit your future as a trainer. Be a good girl and go watch with me."
"Otherwise, I'll deduct your allowance."
"Eh~"
Unlike Haruka, who was reluctantly dragged over by her mother to watch the battle, Masaru hopped and skipped onto the battlefield to act as the referee.
"Then let the battle begin!" Xiao Sheng excitedly waved his flag.
"Go, hyperactive ape!"
"Pikachu, I choose you!"
"Ouch!"
"Pickup!"
The Pokémon on the Thousand Miles School was the same Apexisk that Baku had released before.
Unlike when it was in Xiaosheng's hands, this hyperactive ape that officially appeared on the battlefield had a completely different aura and looked quite formidable.
"Let's say hello first, Pikachu! Quick Attack!"
"This is the perfect opportunity for hyperactive monkeys! Use 'One more time'!"
